It is shown that the sharp constant in the Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality on the three dimensional upper half space is given by the Sobolev constant. This is achieved by a duality argument relating the problem to a Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev…

In the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, the sharp classical Sobolev inequality is equivalent by conformal invariance to a Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$. This inequality is sharp in dimension $d\geq 4$, but it is…

We consider a type of Hardy-Sobolev inequality, whose weight function is singular on the whole domain boundary. We are concerned with the attainability of the best constant of such inequality. In dimension two, we link the inequality to a…
